Goat Collective
branding
- worked on the business cards using traditional method of letterpress to save money, but not time
- Clarendon is our adopted typeface, which is our logotype on the business cards
- our logo is a friendly hand drawn sketch of a goat with typography across its eyes and collective surrounding its chin
- we also have a website, invoice and letterhead
